Just look at these babies. I really don't need to say anything else about them!!
Apart from they are just B-E-A-UUUUTIFUL! I love the colour, their so comfortable and their great for adding an edge or even just a pop of colour! I absolutely love the 90's vibe going on right now, and it being acceptable to wear sports brands again without being branded a chav or looking like I'm on my way to the gym. The celebs have gone wild for the trend too, and everytime I see Beyonce and co sporting a new pair of Nike or Adidas it makes me want to rush to the shops - it brings out my inner Tomboy! I just really hope that poppers make a come back - they were my ultimate fave back in the day!
A few Saturday's ago slightly hungover (story of my life recently) and on the quest for the most mouth watering sandwich I could possible find - I found myself heading towards Bill's in Soho infamous for their Fish Finger sandwich.
I consider myself a fish finger sandwich conesuer having endeavoured in so many of them being a student, and having gotten used to a strong contender in a pub down the road from where I used to work - I was up for the challenge - Daloni vs Food.
Bill's is a typical British style diner with a friendly, relaxed vibe and you really do feel a buzz when you walk in through the door. The decor is quirky yet modern, with super cute crockery, wooden tables, and large things hanging down from the ceiling to keep you amused while waiting for your food. When I think of the vibe, I can picture Carrie Bradshaw and co having a good ol' goss on a Saturday afternoon.
Bill's is the perfect daytime food place and hangout, and for a very busy place it has a welcoming and warm atmosphere. Personally I wouldn't choose to go there in the evening, but Im sure that there are far worse places to go - they even light a candle to mark the start of the evening!
There's plenty of choice on the menu, and something for everyone - and all within a reasonable price range. What I love about Bill's is how they've concentrated on the simple food that is a winner with everyone, and added a little to it to make it their own. Even the bread and butter tasted better!! And the fish finger sandwich, well it's a clear winner!
So last week I attended my first ever press day for Boohoo. Now to be completely honest I've never been a fan of the Boohoo brand, I find the quality of their products cheap, and they seemed to be the official sponsor of Notting hill carnival, until yesterday...
I was pleasantly surprised at the high quality and forward fashion look of their coming pieces. The looks they had gone for were gorgeous and they had definitely stepped away from any concept that I previously had for them. I was going round making mental notes of stuff that I have to have, especially the jewellery. I am like a magpie, and I'm instantly drawn to anything that sparkles, so I spent most of my time there gushing over their gorgeous earrings and statement necklaces.
The blue scuba style dress is my thinspiration, and the black and white long coat is a must for my winter wardrobe.
I met the head of Boohoo too, who was an absolute hoot, peer pressuring us into having a glass of champagne (not that it took much encouragement) and just absolutely hilarious! Never a dull moment with him around I can imagine.
I now can't wait to spend my Boohoo voucher!
